Description

Do you have that one kid that just fights you on learning, whether it be one subject or all of them?  Have you considered using games to move the learning along, called "gameschooling?"  When  children play games, they learn social skills like getting along, reading directions, waiting their turn, negotiating with someone, interpreting rules and even coming to an agreement when the rules aren't clear.  These are all things our children will be doing in their adult life and we can coach it in real time in our homeschools.In today's episode, Amanda talks with Cait Curley of Never Board Learning and My Little Poppies.  They discuss how they came to homeschooling when their children's needs couldn't be met by public schoolingthe many facets of gifted kidshow gameschooling can benefit all kinds of learnershow outdoor play helps foster creativity and is such an important part of developmenthow even moms who don't like playing games can use gameschooling to help their familiesResources & LinksNever Board Learning Community, www.neverboardlearning.comMy Little Poppies, www.my-little-poppies.comCait Curley on Instagram: @neverboardlearning and @my_little_poppies My Little Poppies courses, focusing on unit studies, readalouds,  and gameschooling!  "Gameschooling: 100 Educational Games for Homeschooling", www.my-little-poppies.com/100-educational-games/"Gameschooling By Subject: The Best Games for Your Homeschool," www.my-little-poppies.com/gameschooling-by-subject/ Boardgamegeek.com 10x10 challenge starts again in January.

Welcome to GOAT Homeschooling with Erin and Amanda. We've created the podcast we wish WE could've listened to all these years we've been home educating our kids. We will discuss the rights and wrongs of trying to homeschool for the "long haul," in other words, past those first five years ... and what we've learned works and doesn't. It's time to have the conversation with other homeschoolers about getting your kids to the finish line in a strong and excellent way. We've got a lot of great info to share and we're looking forward to having you listen in. Find us wherever you listen to podcasts.
